 | Comments: |
Last minute plan when I saw a small (potentially) rain-free window in the early morning. Started 6:15 am - NO rain until in the car about 11am on the way home. I barebooted the entire hike, but some would prefer spikes for the monorail sections. Gorge Brook monorails are still there but getting narrower and thinner. Snow alternating with bare rock, so just stuck with bare booting, as snow was grippy enough. Carriage Rd still significant snow, especially from summit to Glencliff Tr jct; Snapper nearly snow-free. Good outing up the Moose - needed a short adventure with the pups. |
